The income I provided is ways more than the yearly cost of the drug...and yes I'm waiting...it is just so annoying and totally occupying my mind right now...
Ok googling doesn't indicate that Ontario covers the drug. Which means you have to pay insurance. As it's funded on your part, I don't think it will be a problem.

That's what I thought as well, but then upon further research found that there is something called Exceptional program in which they cover part of it if you don't find other sources...
It is just so saddening because I actually developed the disease here in Canada, because young migrants from Middle east and Europe are of a significantly higher risk of developing it..

I understand your apprehension; it's totally valid. However, there isn't much you can do than to wait for information/notification from CIC. In the unlikely event that you receive procedural fairness letter, I believe you are poised to overcome it with your patient support through the pharma company. BTW, did you submit a prognosis report from your specialist to the panel physician--very important.
"However, in Companioni v. Canada (M.C.I.), 2009 FC 1315 and later cases, the Federal Court allowed some flexibility in assessing the applicant’s ability to defray the costs of outpatient medication, such as HIV antiretroviral therapy. Therefore, medical officers have to make an individualized assessment of the medical file, the required outpatient medication, the availability of private insurance and the ability to opt out of publicly funded drug plans in the province or territory where the applicant intends to reside."
Nothing to do with your medical but it's a good read: https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.bellissimolawgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/JRDecision.pdf&ved=0ahUKEwin3qaC7avRAhVHDsAKHYaHBr4QFgg-MAQ&usg=AFQjCNHzLEfkLMCk9tUcY35e5EHrAkvHmA
